An Imprisoned paoha te be Pardon,

CAIRO, March 1Sth-It is reported that
the Egyptian Government is meditating
the release of Zobehr Pasha He is a
prisoner of state at Gibraltar, where he
has been in captivity since March 30, 1885.
He was arrested March I4th at Alexandria
by the other Khedive, for alleged treason,
it having been charged that he was secret
ally of Ell Mahdi, and had been largely
instrumental in securing for the False
Prophet the fall of Khartoum. Zobehr
Pasha preceded General Gordon as Gov
ernor of Soudan. Gordon admired him.
even till his removal from the Governor
ship, and insisted that he should be re-
stored to power, as the only man capable
of maintaining order in Soudan. The
arrest and transportation OF Zobehr is at
tributed by a large and influential party in
Egypt to intrigue, and this party always
insisted that he was true patriot, and
that the charges against him which effected
his downfall were pure inventions.

an EXTRA SESSION.
Some Talk of Congress Being Called To-
gether in October

WASHINGTON, March 1Sth.-[Special.1 l.
The Star tonight says that Representative
Townshend, of Illinois, expects an extra
session of Congress to be called in October
He does not think there is any need for
Congress to meet before then, but there
are many reasons why they should meet
at that time. The deficiency bill and the
! river and harbor bills, he thinks, will need
to be acted on before Congress meets in De-
cember, and besides that it is i'm
portant that the House should be
organized and prepared for work
soon enough to get through with
their business before political discussions
begin to take up the time. 1t is desirable
that they should do as much as possible at
the session just preceding political con-
test, and adjourn early. There is bound to
be much time taken up on the floor of the
House by talking politics, and unless there
is an extra session called in October the
prospects of doing much work during the
session are not good. He does not expect
any contest over the Speakership or organ
ization of the House, and thinks that if
there is to be any revision of the tariff the
Executive will have to take a hand in it.

The Supreme Court, in the case of Duffy
against Greenebaum, on a motion to dis
miss an appeal, decided that - in this case
there is no undertaking on appeal, as the
section of the Code allowing an undertake

undertaking filed has no application. y
Judge Mcfarland gave dissenting opin-

vided for in Section 942 has all the condi-

This cry may be heard every day in

pity the ragged old merchants who
wander along giving it utterance. Yet
these itinerant hatters are not SO much
to be pitied after all. Many Of the
old hats they carry slung in bag over
their shoulders have cost them nothing.

for pittance. There is q market for
old hats in New York. and a large

dealers in the trade whose yearly
profits make a considerable figure.

in cellar on Fourth avenue. He may

The postal laws of the United
States makes it larceny to take a
newspaper from the post Office and
refuse to pay for it. A publisher in
Illinois, short time ago, brought
suit against forty-three subscribers,
who refused to pay their indebted
ness, and obtained judgment in each
clse for the full amount of the claim.
OF these, twenty-eight made affidavit
that they owned no more property
than that allowed by law, thus pre-
venting attachment. They then,
under the decision of the supreme
court, were arrested for petty larceny
and bound over in the sum of $500
each. All but six gave bonds; the
others went to jail.
